Great talk - thanks for sharing. I found the emotional component of why we find it hard to part with our things interesting. It made me think of some clothing items I have and still find some difficulty in parting with. Your video got me thinking about putting words to those emotions/thoughts/etc surrounding each piece of clothing. It was interesting to think through and find the story behind what in my life caused me to want to hold on to certain things (eg this shirt was a brand/look that I previously couldn't afford so now that I can afford that and even though I don't wear it, if I part with it, will I be giving up those feelings of "I've made it". From there, once we've put words to it, I think it's easier to be reasonable and let the item go as once I donate it, I will likely rarely, if at all, think about any of these items again. That's been the case with other items I've donated as well. Again, thanks for sharing.
